As real estate lawsuits shake up industry, B.C. impact remains uncertain

Two North American court cases are taking the real estate industry to task over commissions paid out to Realtors.

A proposed class-action lawsuit filed in January alleges that the Canadian Real Estate Association , alongside dozens of provincial and local real estate groups “conspired, agreed or arranged with each other to fix, maintain, increase or control the price for the supply of buyer brokerage services for residential real estate.”

"Canada however, is a different country with a differing legal and business framework than the US. As the CREA has indicated, they deem the case in Canada to be without merit," he said in an email to BIV. When it comes to whether or not the CREA lawsuit will result in lower home prices, Davidoff said that it may not be the case.
